INTRODUCTION
The QSB and QSI modules are available with or without a display. The QSI modules are also available as a “display ready” version with no display installed, but ready for the customer to install his own GPI display.
QSB:
The QSB module is equipped with pulse-out electronics. Pulse out electronics is the default standard re-gardless of type of module or style of cover plate. This manual contains in-formation and meter wiring diagrams for the QSB pulse-out electronics.
QSI:
The QSI communications module is a multiple capability electronics pack-age and has three versions (QSI1, QSI2 or QSI3) available; each with its own mix of capabilities to better serve the customer (See Versions below).
• QSI1 is equipped with: Bluetooth®, **coil/digital pulse input, pulse output (flow or energy & scalable), RS485 (Modbus® RTU), temperature inputs, BTU calculator.
• QSI2 is equipped with: Bluetooth, **coil/digital pulse input, pulse output (flow or energy & scalable), data logger, tempera-ture inputs, BTU calculator.
• QSI3 is equipped with: Bluetooth, **coil/digital pulse in-put, pulse output (flow scalable), data logger, 4-20mA output.
This manual contains information and meter wiring diagrams for the three different QSI electronics modules.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
QSB and QSI module electronics are very sensitive to electric noise if operated within 6 inches of some electric motors, relays, transformers or other sources of electronic noise.
If the QSB or QSI electronics are used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
GENERAL INFORMATION
QSB and QSI electronics are avail-able factory installed on designated meters, or as modules that will adapt the electronics to other GPI meters.
The QSB and QSI electronics con-verts the voltage (or pulses) from the meter into usable information to support the various capabilities of the modules. The modules also sup-ply the display (when installed) with the information and power it needs to function as designed.
The QSB and QSI module electronics are powered by customer- supplied external power.
SAFETY
This product is not approved for use in hazardous locations.
• Be sure O-rings and seals are kept in good repair.
• When applying power, adhere to specifications in this manual.
• Disconnect external power before attaching or detaching input or output wires.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
4. Using a small regular screwdriver, remove the clear sealant from the 10 pin female connector holes on the backside of your display.
5. Insert the “long legs” of the 10 pin male connector that came with the kit into the 10 pin female connector on the QSI circuit board (see Figure 2).
6. Install the formed display seal into the seal gland on the backside of the display.
7. CAREFULLY mount the display onto the cover plate ensuring the legs of the male 10 pin connector are inserted into ALL 10 pin female connector holes of the display (see Figure 3).
8. Secure the display to the cover plate using the four #4-20 x 7/8 in. tapping screws. Torque to 80-96 oz-in (0.56-0.67 Nm).
NOTE: For Display Ready QSI Mod-ules Only.
For the “Display Ready” QSI module, follow these initial instructions first to install your customer provided dis-play to the cover plate in the kit. Then follow the Installation Instructions to install this customer assembled unit to the meter.
1. Make sure the QSI module is disconnected from power source.
2. Remove batteries from your display, they will no longer be needed.
3. Remove the pickup coil from the back center of your display by cutting the two wires that attach it to the display. Cut the wires as close to the display as possible to ensure the cut ends do not touch the PC board inside the QSI mod-ule. Discard the removed coil.

NOTE: For ALL kit part numbers.
1. Make sure the QSB or QSI module and meter are disconnected from power source.
2. Remove any attached product, if it exists, from the top of your TM meter. It will be replaced with the module components.
3. Remove the (6) #8-16 x 3/4 in. screws attaching the module cover plate to the base and separate. Do not damage the seal between the two components. The (2) wires connecting the QSB or QSI PC board to the screw terminal of the pick-up circuit board are long enough to allow separation of parts. The wires may be disconnected from the screw terminal if necessary. The wires are non-polarized and may be connected to either screw of the screw terminal (see Figure 4).
4. Install the gasket received with the module on the bottom of the base. Mount the base to the TM meter, seating the pick-up coil in the meter recess. Secure base with (4) screws provided with the module. Tighten screws.
5. Make sure the seal is in place on top of the base prior to reattaching (if previously disconnected) the (2) wires to the screw terminal of the pick-up circuit board.
6. To route external power and/or electronic cables to the QSB or QSI PC board screw connectors, prepare the cover plate by removing the plug and sealing washer from each port that you intend to use. Replace the removed plugs with a strain relief w/O-ring. The strain relief will accommodate cable sizes of 0.11 in. (2.8 mm) through 0.26 in. (6.6 mm) diameter. Leave the factory installed plugs in any unused ports.
7. (Make sure the power is disconnected from external cables before beginning this step): Route external cables through the strain relief(s), and then tighten the dome nut securely around the cable to provide an environmental seal.
8. Connect cable wires to the QSB or QSI PC board screw connectors (see Figure 6, 8, 10, or 12 depending on your module version).
9. Mount the cover plate on the base making sure the seal is seated properly between them. Replace the (6) previously removed screws to secure the cover plate to the base. Tighten screws.
10. Connect power to QSB or QSI module and meter.

The pulse output from the QSB provides 2500V galvanic isolation from the QSB digital circuitry to the external customer equipment. The QSB pulse output is an open collec-tor design which requires an external pull up resistor to an external power
supply. The resistance must be chosen such that the QSB will not sink more than 30mA of current. The external power supply voltage must also be less than +36VDC to prevent damage to the QSB.

The wire gauge for the pulse output cable should be between 16 to 26 AWG to properly fit in the wire termi-nation connector.
The pulse output ground should be properly connected to the customer equipment ground, while the pulse
output signal should be properly con-nected to both the customer equip-ment pulse input and an external pull up resistor to an external supply (if the customer equipment doesn’t contain the pull up resistor).

MAINTENANCE
Check cable-entry seals periodical-ly. Tighten and/or apply sealant if needed. This is especially important in environments containing heavy concentrations of dust, oil mist, or other residue.
Check all wiring connections occa-sionally for oxidation or corrosion. Clean and re-seat if such conditions are noted.
If necessary, check and re-seat any connections that may have been subjected to strain (during rework or construction, for example).
REPLACING BATTERY
The QSI2 and QSI3 communications module has a 3V lithium coin cell battery installed on the PC board. In case of power failure the battery functions as power backup to main-tain the internal system time. Any QSI2 or QSI3 feature that uses a time reference as part of its functionality will be immediately accurate to the current time when power is restored. To Replace Battery:
DISCONNECT POWER TO METER
WITHOUT DISPLAY
• Remove (6) screws retaining the cover plate to the base and lift the cover plate free of the base (see Figure 15).
• Flip the cover plate over and re-move (4) screws retaining the PC board assembly (see Figure 16).
• Remove and replace the coin cell battery (CR2032) on the back side of PC board (see Figure 17).
• Reverse the procedure to reas-semble the cover plate to the base. Make sure the cover plate seal is seated before tightening the (6) cover plate screws.
WITH DISPLAY
On units with a display, only the dis-play needs to be removed to replace the coin cell battery. The battery is accessible through the opening where the display is installed (see Figure 18).
• Remove (4) screws retaining the display to the cover plate. Lift the display straight up to disconnect the 10-pin bridge connector. The bridge connector could disen-gage from either socket connec-tor (display or PCB assembly) or both.
• Remove and replace the coin cell battery (CR2032).
• Reverse the procedure to reas-semble the display to the base. Make sure the display seal is seated before tightening the (4) display screws.
For warranty consideration, contact your local distributor. If you need further assistance, contact the GPI Customer Service Department at:
